About Me

I am a daughter, mother, sister, friend, wife, and one who is striving to walk every day in the path that my Heavenly Father has laid out for me, which some days, may I add can be a struggle. Thankfully, on those days I know that I can go to him in prayer and he is there for me. I'm always busy doing odd projects in order to keep my sanity while being a mom to two wonderful kids. I'm married to a wonderful and supportive husband who helps me bring my ideas to reality. I love to decorate, scrapbook, organize and take LOTS of pictures. Even though my friends may disagree, my house is not always perfectly clean and the laundry is not always ironed and put away. Remember...I'm busy being a mom and doing odd projects.

Green Eggs and Ham

Every year I fix green eggs and ham for Dr Seuss day. Usually, we read Green Eggs and Ham and we have made hats out of paper before. But this year, I decided to make the hats, yes, call me crazy. This is probably one of the craziest things that I have done in a very long time (I think). I do not care to sew at all and in fact my sewing machine has been used more by other people then by myself. With no pattern, I bought the material (took a wild guess on how much) and spent several hours making these hats so that my kids could wear them for a hour if that. They did turn out pretty cute, Phillip and my neighbor were impressed and Jonah and Courtney decided wear their Thing 1 and Thing 2 sweatshirts even though it was in the high 70's. Now, I realize my kids are bordering on the age of being to old, but I never hear a complaint so until that day comes or until I start forgetting what day it is, I guess we will enjoy our green eggs and ham. Thing 1 and Thing 2 waiting on their green eggs and ham. The kids can be a little dramatic, they eat green eggs and ham every year and every year they act like it is the first time. We all like Green Eggs and Ham!!! Check out Courtney's teeth (ham) with her eggs.

Okay...What fun! You know, I have always celebrated Dr. Seuss' b-day at school. AND I have a hat pattern! Next time, call me before you decide to venture out and CREATE. Although, I have to say, you did a SUPER job on the hats. Another talent for your list. AND I love to eat green eggs and ham!
